In you, O Lord, I take refuge; let me never be put to shame.<\/p>\n

In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me; incline your ear to me and save me.<\/p>\n

Be to me a rock of refuge, a strong fortress, to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.<\/p>\n

Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and cruel.<\/p>\n

For you, O Lord, are my hope, my trust, O Lord, from my youth.<\/p>\n

Upon you I have leaned from my birth; it was you who took me from my mother\u2019s womb. My praise is continually of you.<\/p>\n

I have been like a portent to many, but you are my strong refuge.<\/p>\n

My mouth is filled with your praise, and with your glory all day long.<\/p>\n

Do not cast me off in the time of old age; do not forsake me when my strength is spent.<\/p>\n

For my enemies speak concerning me, and those who watch for my life consult together.<\/p>\n

They say, \u201cPursue and seize that person whom God has forsaken, for there is no one to deliver.\u201d<\/p>\n

O God, do not be far from me; O my God, make haste to help me!<\/p>\n

Let my accusers be put to shame and consumed; let those who seek to hurt me be covered with scorn and disgrace.<\/p>\n

But I will hope continually, and will praise you yet more and more.<\/p>\n

My mouth will tell of your righteous acts, of your deeds of salvation all day long, though their number is past my knowledge.<\/p>\n

I will come praising the mighty deeds of the Lord God, I will praise your righteousness, yours alone.<\/p>\n

O God, from my youth you have taught me, and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.<\/p>\n

So even to old age and gray hairs, O God, do not forsake me, until I proclaim your might to all the generations to come. Your power<\/p>\n

and your righteousness, O God, reach the high heavens. You who have done great things, O God, who is like you?<\/p>\n

You who have made me see many troubles and calamities will revive me again; from the depths of the earth you will bring me up again.<\/p>\n

You will increase my honor, and comfort me once again.<\/p>\n

I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praises to you with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.<\/p>\n

My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises to you; my soul also, which you have rescued.<\/p>\n

All day long my tongue will talk of your righteous help, for those who tried to do me harm have been put to shame, and disgraced.<\/p>\n
